RADIATION FROM A CHARGED PARTICLE IN UNIFORM STRAIGHT MOTION THROUGH A PERIODIC SET OF DIELECTRIC PLATES,

Abstract

The exact solution is given of the problem of transition radiation produced by the passage of a charged particle through an arbitrary number of dielectric slabs separated by vacuum spaces. Expressions for the electromagnetic fields and for the radiated energy have been found which are more general than those given by Garibyan. The expressions given in this report are valid for material slabs of arbitrary refractive index and for velocities of the particle which can be either below or above the Cerenkov threshold for the di electric considered.
